ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) could not retrieve land from a restaurant built in I-9/4 sector on the of Islamabad slaughterhouse.
On the other hand, meat sellers have lodged a complaint with the CDA Member Administration, saying various departments of the development authority are causing delays in the construction of the slaughterhouse.
All Pakistan Jamiatul Quresh Meat Welfare Association President Khursheed Qureshi also alleged that there is no check on the quality of meat being sold in the city and the main reason is that there is no proper slaughterhouse in Islamabad.
Qureshi said that the capital city’s population has grown to about 2.6 million and the slaughterhouse in Rawalpindi is insufficient to fulfil the growing demand for meat in Islamabad.
He said that proper arrangements must be made for quarantine and slaughter of animals using modern methods.
